High-fidelity simulation provides nursing students with the opportunity to learn and achieve competence in a safe context. The aim of the study was to assess learning outcomes following multiple exposures to high-fidelity simulation sessions. The sample consisted of 18 graduate students enrolled in a critical care nursing course. A four-hour high-fidelity simulation experience was conducted, with a four-hour retraining one month after. Group performance, self-efficacy, self-confidence, and satisfaction improved after multiple exposures to high-fidelity simulation. High-fidelity simulation is a valid adjunct to nursing education in the short term and may improve learning when offered at multiple time points.

This contribution details a new high-fidelity finite element analysis (FEA) methodology for the investigation of the effect of the graft size on the pressure distribution developing at the calcaneocuboid joint after the Evans osteotomy procedure. The FEA model includes all 28 bones of the foot up to the distal end of fibula and tibia as well as soft tissues, tendons, and muscles. The developed FEA model was validated by comparing the in-vivo pressure distribution on the foot plantar with the in-silico results, resulting in a low deviation equal to 7.

Background: The use of an observer tool (OT) has been shown to improve learning of technical skills through observation in simulation. The objective was to assess the impact of a non-technical OT on anaesthesia residents' learning of non-technical skills (NTS) during simulation.

Methods: After consent, residents were randomised into 2 groups: OT+ (with an OT based on NTS to be systematically completed during observation of others) and OT- (without OT).

Spatially resolved transcriptomics (SRT) provides an invaluable avenue for examining cell-cell interactions within native tissue environments. The development and evaluation of analytical tools for SRT data necessitate tools for generating synthetic datasets with known ground truth of cell-cell interaction induced features. To address this gap, we introduce sCCIgen, a novel real-data-based simulator tailored to generate high-fidelity SRT data with a focus on cell-cell interactions.
